Started with a statistics course and even the basic concepts are a problem for me. Reason for that is that there are no examples in the book and just a bunch of formulas. It makes it hard to grasp the concept. I hope one can help me out!

So the question is:
IF x ~ N(2,5) what is E(e^x) and what is the median of e^x?
Where is x is normally distributed. According to the solutions, the answer is 90.017 and 7.3891 respectively but there is no explanation!

Can someone explain to me how I should approach this is plain English?
